Slitterhead review - from Silent Hill to the worst horror game of 2024 - Metro

A deeply flawed attempt to combine survival horror with Devil May Cry style action, that tries to do a dozen things at once and succeeds at none of them.

This is exactly the issue I expected Slitterhead to face with some reviewers.

"A survival horror game that’s not scary, combined with an action game where the action falls short, isn’t a very good idea for a video game..."

But Slitterhead isn’t a survival horror game, it’s a horror game. In gaming, most horror titles incorporate survival mechanics, so people often assume the two go hand in hand. However, that’s not entirely accurate. Just as there are various types of horror across other media, from movies to books, gaming also has room for horror experiences that don’t focus on survival elements.

The problem is that it's an action game where the action is janky and the things it's trying to succeed at are a mixed bag in their own right. But it's also the sort of game where you either appreciate what the Devs are trying to do or you don't, so reviews can only offer so much. It's at least trying to be something new.

I don’t know… looks to me like a fun version of unknown 9 where the action is kick ass instead of lame ass.

3 out of ten is near a broken game. Reviews are all over the place for this game. I’ll buy it at some point this winter to try for myself

If I miss PS2 games I just play PS2 games. Either on PS5 or PS3 Fat. I played Summoner last year on PS5 and got the platinum it was pretty good despite its bugs. I never played the first one but did play the second one
